I’m IN LOVE with my new NB shoes!!!!
Considering that i spent a significant amount of time this past Black Friday reading reviews of so many running shoes over and over for hours, and was only finally able to make up my mind on these shoes - many thanks to thorough reviews from other customers, i just have to pay it forward!These shoes are AMAAAAZZZING!!! My 4th pair of NB shoes overall (2nd to be purchased on Amazon)...and they are the BEST so far!!! I was mainly looking for running shoes to use both in and out of the gym (plus for working out as well) - shoes that especially have GREAT traction, because the traction of my other two running shoes is not great at all (my 3rd pair is more of a cross fit training kind of shoes). ive worn these shoes twice at my gym and so far, they’ve not been slipping on the floor (even when wet) unlike d previous ones. Although im yet to wear them outside because we’ve had a couple snow storms since purchasing them (have been wearing snow boots mostly), but with the amazing grip that they give on the gym floor, i have no doubt they will hold up amazing as well on ice/moderate snow or water outside.i was able to wear them comfortably right out of the box, without any need for breaking in - matter of fact, i wore them to the gym the morning after they were delivered to my apartment! Although i still put my shoe inserts in them (just because ive had terrible shin splints in the past & am always paranoid about having a recurrence), these shoes are EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE on the feet and dont need any additional shoe inserts/orthotics imo unless you are someone like me ;)In addition, they run true to size and are MORE GORGEOUS than they actually look on the Amazon page lol (ive attached pictures taken upon bringing them right out of the box). Plus, the price is decent too - honestly they are way MORE AMAZING than the expensive $120 over-pronator NB shoes that i purchased earlier this year. Did i mention that delivery was super-fast too (shoes ordered on Black Friday, were delivered to my apartment Cyber Monday night)?If you are someone who stands on your feet for a very long time, over-pronates when running, wants a decent-priced, comfortable, gorgeous pair of running shoes that have great traction (although as previously mentioned...im yet to test the traction on ice/snow), go for these shoes! You’ll be glad you did :)

Love these shoes!!!
These are definitely worth the money! Super comfortable, a perfect fit, GREAT traction and just an attractive shoe. The pink is very bright (like neon) and the green/yellow is what I would describe as highliter lemonlime. The parts that looked like gray on my screen are actually more of a stormy bluish gray color.I would definitely buy these again. And I highly recommend so far!Update: I can no longer get the same color shoes which is a huge bummer because I LOVE these!!! However, I did purchase the coral/neon peach ones and they are absolutely fantastic as well! So I have already decided to snag another pair of those ones to replace as they wear out. These shoes are so comfortable, the fit is perfect, and they are GORGEOUS!

"Serious-Pretty" Running/Walking Shoe, but Questionable Stability on the Trail.
I found this to be a surprisingly comfortable, light weight "running/walking/standing" shoe. I made the purchase as a trail shoe, but I am not convinced this shoe will hold-up or offer much stability on a trail: which is the only reason I gave it four-stars. The shoe runs small, so order 1/2 size larger. This shoe has a roomy toe-box/no seams or pressure points; I love the extra cushioning at the heel that ensures "no blister wear" and good arch support. AND, it falls in the category of a "serious-pretty" athletic shoe, with the black detailing: Pink is taken seriously. Had I ordered a 1/2 size up, I would have kept the shoe as a kick-about-town and/or pavement walking/running. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to people who know where I live. :).

Highly recommend for hiking or running!
Love, love, LOVE these sneakers! I bought them specifically for my trip to Machu Picchu, Peru. I didn’t want to buy hiking shoes because I knew I would never wear them again. I researched what other options and these New Balances popped up. I was skeptical at first, I had never used New Balance but decided what I needed them for and the price they were worth a shot. They were the best decision, super comfortable for all day walking and hiking, light weight, perfect for my narrow feet, great support, and super easy to clean. I am back from my trip and I am still wearing them. They are also great to run in which is what they are for! Super happy and will be purchasing another pair when I need new ones.

Didn’t have to break these in!
I’m overall satisfied with these shoes. I gave it four out of five stars due to two things. The insole is on the harder side (I bought a gel insole) and these are not breathable at all. My feet do get hot in these. On the flip side if you are on a sandy hike and it’s cold outside these are great for that. I bought these for long walks and they are really comfortable right out the gate. You do need to wear an ankle sock (not a no show) to prevent blisters on the achilles. There is good arch support for those who need that. They have great grip on the sole to prevent slippage. I have a wide foot so it’s rare I don’t need to break in a shoe. Love the design!Update: I’ve only has these for three months and there’s already a hole in them. For that reason I updated it to 3 stars instead of 4.
